Ribeye, blistered shisito peppers, sugar snap peas, and garlic bread. Satisfying.

You know that's not a bike, right? And that you're not supposed to have a beer while driving a car?

Finished my latest music.

Incremental gains. 69% humidity doesn't seem like a lot, but ugh.

Warm bike ride demands cold beer...

Decided to ride to our vacation spot today. Didn't look at time/distance/speed once during the ride. Just rode at a pace that I thought would allow me to finish. An unexpected detour added about five and a half miles and an additional big hill or two but I survived, so no complaints.

God I hate installing carts Managed not to blow anything up, as the pass ono requires opening the top to access the MC settings and add a jumper for setting gain 🤦‍♂️ at least the cart was pretty easy to install due to threaded mounting holes and the cart pins actually lining up directly with the headshell pins. gratuitous doggie pics!

2SK170 and 2SJ74 are the singles for those. And there are the Linear Systems versions (LSK389 and LSJ109 or variants). Of course the majority of the original Toshiba parts on ebay, aliexpress and even some suppliers (dalbani and their ilk) are fakes.

First off: really good. Dig. You reinforce my stance over and over -- people write differently when they write instrumental music. I really need to finish something. I finally upgraded the OS on my Prophet 6 (about 2 weeks ago, thanks to motivation from people at Al1ce), and found out the TRS connector for the headphone out is really sensitive to length (it's sorta a size queen), so there's only one headphone that works for it. Anyway, my point is, every time I sit down to record something, I end up playing instead. It's got a crazy good arpeggiator, and it's got a reverb so it's not painful to listen to on headphones, so I end up just playing around with it, rather than sit down to record one of my many ideas. One of these days...

Finished! Thanks to KG, Sbelyo, Pars and mwl168 for the help!

You can tell it's vintage from the big bush.

I like my porn vintage!

still working on getting the camera mount sorted for the Can-Am but this is working reasonably well.

Pork and veal meatballs with a garlic cream sauce and (sinful) pasta.
